Psalms:22:1-21
Seeker Overlay ON
*
My God ,
My God ,
why have You forsaken Me ?
Why are You so far from helping Me ,
And from the words of My groaning ?
*
O My God ,
I cry in the daytime ,
but You do not hear ;
And in the night season ,
and am not silent .
*
But You are holy ,
Enthroned in the praises of Israel .
*
Our fathers trusted in You ;
They trusted ,
and You delivered them .
*
They cried to You ,
and were delivered ;
They trusted in You ,
and were not ashamed .
*
But I am a worm ,
and no man ;
A reproach of men ,
and despised by the people .
*
All those who see Me ridicule Me ;
They shoot out the lip ,
they shake the head ,
saying ,
* "
He trusted in the LORD ,
let Him rescue Him ;
Let Him deliver Him ,
since He delights in Him !"
*
But You are He who took Me out of the womb ;
You made Me trust while on My mother '
s breasts .
*
I was cast upon You from birth .
From My mother '
s womb You have been My God .
*
Be not far from Me ,
For trouble is near ;
For there is none to help .
*
Many bulls have surrounded Me ;
Strong bulls of Bashan have encircled Me .
*
They gape at Me with their mouths ,
Like a raging and roaring lion .
*
I am poured out like water ,
And all My bones are out of joint ;
My heart is like wax ;
It has melted within Me .
*
My strength is dried up like a potsherd ,
And My tongue clings to My jaws ;
You have brought Me to the dust of death .
*
For dogs have surrounded Me ;
The congregation of the wicked has enclosed Me .
They pierced My hands and My feet ;
*
I can count all My bones .
They look and stare at Me .
*
They divide My garments among them ,
And for My clothing they cast lots .
*
But You ,
O LORD ,
do not be far from Me ;
O My Strength ,
hasten to help Me !
*
Deliver Me from the sword ,
My precious life from the power of the dog .
*
Save Me from the lion '
s mouth And from the horns of the wild oxen !
You have answered Me .
